Part 1: Avalanche Beacon Searching 101

Learn the basics of avalanche transceiver searching with the team from Backcountry Access. BCA in-house sales specialist Andy Wenberg introduces the four phases of the avalanche transceiver search: the signal search, coarse search, fine search, and pinpointing (probing). While Andy uses the Tracker2 in this video, the techniques apply to all transceivers. This is not a substitute for an avalanche class. Get educated before heading into the winter backcountry.
